I remember the first day of primary As if it were yesterday But it’s only a memory Now I learn of Faraday I used to be afraid of the dark But now I can’t sleep without it The times I read about Noah’s ark Are long gone, now buried in work I sit. Where did the time go? Why do I mourn my child’s death? When I still feel his feelings, his presence? When did I grow up so fast?
